In the mini-exhibition Highlights from the Absolut Art Collection, the diversity of the art collection Absolut Art Collection is reflected through works in various artistic media. The exhibition features pieces by some of the collection’s more well-known artists such as Louise Bourgeois, Beatrice Cussol, Keith Haring, David Shrigley, and Andy Warhol, conveying a sense of recognition, humor, and creativity.
The Absolut Art Collection comprises just over 850 works by 550 artists from the period 1985–2004. In this unique collection, painting, printmaking, photography, sculpture, fashion, and craft meet — all sharing a common purpose: to become part of Absolut Vodka’s worldwide campaigns. The result is an art history that unites the visual language of advertising with the freedom of art – showing how the boundaries between the two can be artfully blurred. The collection brings together international stars and lesser-known local talents – side by side in a collection that is as unexpected as it is inspiring.
